How to Snub Mores.
A friend of mlue returned the otbel
day from nn American tour and told
me that lie received a severe rebuke
out of the mouth of a babe which cur
ed lilm of expatiating on his experi
ences. He lunched with his brother
, soon after his return and was holding
forth ttlth n consciousness of brilliant
descriptive emphasis when his eldest
nephew, aged eight toward the end of
the meal laid down bis spoon and fork
and said plteously to his mother:
"Mummy, I must talk. It does make
me so tired to hear uncle going on
like that." A still more effective re
buke was administered by a clever
lady of my acquaintance to a cousin of
hers, a young lady who hud Just re
turned from India and was very full
of her experiences. The cousin b:id
devoted herself during breakfast to
giving a lively description of social
life In India and was preparing to
spend the jnornlng In continuing her
lecture when the elder lady slipped
out of the room and returned with
some sermon paper, a blotting book
end a pen. " Maud," she said, "this Is
too good to be lost You must write it
11 down, every word." The lesson
was not thrown away.-Putnam's Msg-nine.

Riding the louth fiea Surf.
"1 shall never forget the first M
ware, I caught out there in the deep
water, t saw It coming, turned my
back od It and paddled for dear life.
Faster and faster my board went, un
til It seemed my arms wonld drop oft.
What was happening behlud me I
could not tell. Oue cannot look be
hind and paddle the windmill stroke
I heard the crest of the wave hissing
and churning, aud theu my board was
lifted snd flung forward. I scarcely
knew what hapiwned the flrst half
minute. Though I kept my eyes open,
I could not see anything, for I was
buried lu the rushlug white of the
crest. But I did not mind. I was
chiefly conscious of ecstatic bliss at
having caught the wave. At the cud
of the half minute, however, I began
to see things and to breathe. I saw
that three feet of the nose of my board
was clear out of water and riding on
the air. I shifted my weight forward
aud made the nose come down. Thai
I lay, quite at rest lu the midst of the
wild movement and watched the shore
nnd the bathers on the lieach grow
distinct. I didu't cover quite a quar
ter of a mile on that wave, because to
prevent, the board from diving I shift
ed in.v weight back, but shifted it too
far and fell down the rear sloe of the
wave." .luck London In Woman's
